Lan Xiaobu was a captain so naturally, no one would object to his words. The group of people followed Lan Xiaobu to his room. Ding He immediately closed the door and stood with Ke Er on the left and right of the door.
After entering the room, Lan Xiaobu used his spiritual will to scan the room and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the room.
Just as everyone started to feel uneasy, Lan Xiaobu said, "We are all new recruits from Planet Zhen Nuo. To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that I was the one who brought everyone here, and I am responsible for everyone's lives, I wouldn't have called everyone here."
Feeling Lan Xiaobu's seriousness, everyone quietened down.
Lan Xiaobu continued, "Before I speak, I ask everyone to swear the most vicious oath that you will not reveal anything that was said here today. Also, if you have any relatives or concerns on Planet Zhen Nuo, it's best that you don't listen to today's words and leave this room now. "
Everyone looked at each other but no one left. The recruits here all came from various planets in Baimo Galaxy. Even if there was Gai Lin, his family was already ruined and he no longer had any concerns.
An Fei was the first to stand up and say, "If I, An Fei, reveal even half a word of what was discussed here today, I, An Fei, will be struck by lightning and turn into ashes, my soul will sink …"
Using one's soul as an oath was already considered a top grade oath. On planets with advanced technology, people had already come into contact with the existence of the soul. However, what form did the soul take? Until now, it was still a research topic for advanced technology.
With An Fei taking the lead, the rest of the people all stood up and made the oath. This sort of oath didn't matter to them as long as they didn't reveal the contents of today's conversation.
Seeing that everyone had made their oaths, Lan Xiaobu said slowly, "Our mission is to protect five geniuses from Planet Zhen Nuo to participate in the Interstellar Selection Competition. Isn't this an extremely dangerous mission? So dangerous that no one wants to accept it? "
"That's right," many people said subconsciously.
This was because every recruit mission was dangerous. Until now, they had never heard of a recruit mission from Planet Zhen Nuo that wasn't dangerous.
Lan Xiaobu chuckled, "Then tell me, after we came here from Planet Zhen Nuo, where is the danger?"
Everyone looked at each other. That's right, where was the danger? Being intercepted in the starry sky, they only needed to watch the show and laugh a little. After arriving at Heaven Luo Planet, all they had to do was stay in a high-class inn and have food, drinks, and entertainment.
In other words, no one would suspect that they were here for a vacation.
A recruit scratched his head. "Recruit missions have always been extremely dangerous. When it comes to interstellar operations, there's almost no chance of survival, so …"
"So everyone subconsciously thinks that this mission is naturally dangerous, right?" Lan Xiaobu continued to ask.
Some people wanted to say that he was right. However, after thinking about it, they had already experienced the most dangerous phase. The second most dangerous phase was protecting the five Zhen Nuo Planet geniuses before the Baimo Galaxy selection.
But where would the danger come from if they hid in the rest stop like this?
"Maybe this mission is different from the previous ones. Our luck is better," An Fei said after some hesitation.
Lan Xiaobu sneered, "If it was different from before, it wouldn't have been the recruits' turn. Does anyone know the military merits of this mission? Almost everyone can advance when they return. How can it be simple? So I think that this mission is just as dangerous, and even more dangerous than the previous recruit missions. "
No one spoke. Even though there were no signs of death, everyone felt that Lan Xiaobu was right.
Lan Xiaobu's gaze swept across everyone. "Everyone knows that the sixth prince is amiable and approachable. However, I feel that no matter how amiable the sixth prince is, he wouldn't greet every recruit here, right?"
Everyone was reminded of how the Sixth Prince, Mag Tai, greeted everyone when they disembarked from the warship. His attitude was also very good.
"Maybe he's trying to build up his reputation. After all, he's a prince and has a chance to become the next emperor," a recruit said.
This was something that everyone understood. Some princes, in order to inherit the throne, would lower themselves and even mingle with the commoners to show that they were amiable and approachable.
"Yes, that's possible." An Fei nodded.
Lan Xiaobu chuckled, "If that's the case, then they'll definitely come to our cabin often to chat and mingle with us. In fact, during the three months of interstellar flight, he hasn't come to our cabin even once. Even though there's only a door between where they're staying and where we're staying. "
Everyone was silent. Lan Xiaobu was speaking the truth.
"Gai Lin, have you heard of the sixth prince's deeds?" Lan Xiaobu's gaze landed on Gai Lin.
Gai Lin shook his head. "Even though I'm a resident of Planet Zhennuo, I've only heard of the Hanlan Empire's first and second princes being close to the commoners. The other princes are all very arrogant. As for the sixth prince's deeds, I've never heard of them. "
Lan Xiaobu said, "That means that even if the sixth prince is amiable and approachable, he hasn't reached the level of the first and second princes. I've thought about it, and there's only one possibility. That is, he feels guilty. Firstly, he feels guilty and embarrassed to meet us often. Secondly, he hopes that we won't blame him after knowing the truth. "
"Then what's the truth?" An Fei subconsciously asked.
Lan Xiaobu said, "I don't know what the truth is either. However, I'm sure that there's an extremely dangerous matter waiting for us to do. This matter is the real reason why we're here as guards. I'm guessing that the mortality rate of this matter is very high. However, it's not to the extent that everyone will die. Once we get through it, there's still a chance for us to get promoted and get rich.
The reason why I called everyone here today is that since we know that we're going to die, I won't stop anyone from leaving this resthouse in search of a chance to survive. Moreover, I won't tell Maha Tai. "
Hearing Lan Xiaobu's words, the crowd started to discuss.
"Captain, why are you telling us this?" A second lieutenant asked.
This was because Lan Xiaobu didn't have to tell them what he said. Moreover, if Lan Xiaobu told them, it wouldn't be beneficial to Lan Xiaobu at all. In fact, it might even be detrimental to him.
Lan Xiaobu said faintly, "Because I'm the one leading this group of guards in name. If I had guessed that everyone was going to die and still kept it a secret, that wouldn't be my character. I wouldn't feel at ease."
Most importantly, Lan Xiaobu didn't have any sense of identity with this group. Being a suicide squad was fine. However, if you want me to be a suicide squad, you have to tell me first. My life is mine. The right to choose is mine.
"Sigh …" The second lieutenant sighed. "Even if everyone wants to leave, they're still pitiful wanderers in Heaven Luo Planet. Once they're caught, they'll be enslaved. "
This time, Lan Xiaobu didn't say anything. He had already told everyone about the danger. The right to choose was in everyone's hands. With his current ability, this was all he could do.
"Captain, are you leaving?" An Fei looked at Lan Xiaobu.
Lan Xiaobu shook his head. "I don't intend to leave. I'll stay here. I'm a captain. If I can survive this, I might even be able to become a Three Star Junior Marquis. "
Becoming a Three Star Junior Marquis was a lie. In reality, Lan Xiaobu didn't intend to return to Zhen Nuo Planet. There was only one reason why he was here, and that was the Jade Enlightenment Star. Otherwise, he would be the first to leave. How could he stay here and be cannon fodder for Tai Mo and the rest?
To become an immortal, being afraid of death was impossible. Yu Qi Star was the closest opportunity he had to becoming an immortal. Moreover, Lan Xiaobu guessed that Li An might have obtained some cultivation techniques from Yu Qi Star. Then, he might have found out that Earth was the origin of the immortal path. That was why he left the Wind Order Galaxy for Earth.
Li An wanted to go to Earth to obtain the true immortal cultivation legacy. In Li An's opinion, Earth's immortal cultivation legacy was much stronger than Yu Qi Star. Moreover, he could obtain it easily. Moreover, he had the capital to go to Earth. However, he didn't expect that even though he went to Earth, he would only be left with his soul. Eventually, he would be destroyed by Lan Xiaobu.
To Lan Xiaobu, he was currently a martial artist. Once he reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would no longer have any cultivation techniques. Whether it was for the future cultivation techniques, or for his future cultivation, he had no reason to give up this opportunity.
This was something from the legends of Hua Xia. Once it became real, no one would be able to reject this opportunity. Even if he lost his life, Lan Xiaobu would still gamble.
"Then I will stay too." An Fei hesitated for a moment before saying.
He had enough of his identity as a wanderer. If he survived this, he would have a stable home on Zhen Nuo Star.
"I will leave …" Purewood Li said without hesitation.
"I will stay …"
At that moment, the hundred people were divided into two groups. One group left, while the other stayed. However, Lan Xiaobu realized that the majority of the people stayed. Only 23 people left.
"Okay, those who want to leave can leave by themselves. There's no need to tell me. I believe that no one will spread today's words. Also, if you want to leave this resthouse and go to Heaven Luo Star, you can do so as long as you return within a month. However, what I want to tell everyone is that Heaven Luo Star is a level 5 technological civilization planet. They will look down on us level 2 technological civilization planets. If something happens, I'm afraid that no one here will back you up. "Lan Xiaobu said again.
Lan Xiaobu also didn't stop the new recruits from going to Heaven Luo Star. Coming out was to see the world. Mo Tai's orders wouldn't work on him.
"Haha, that's great. I want to go to a level 5 technological civilization planet to see and broaden my horizons." Ke Er was the first to shout.
Previously, he wanted to learn martial arts from Lan Xiaobu. However, facing the temptation of a level 5 technological civilization planet, this idea had long been thrown to the back of his mind.
